3. Attach cable management devices (as shown).
The optional data ports, optional NIC cards, and management ports on the controller
modules are connected to switches. The cluster interconnect and HA ports are cabled on
both controller modules.
You must have contacted your network administrator for information about connecting the system to the
switches.
Be sure to check the direction of the cable pull-tabs when inserting the cables in the ports. Cable pull-tabs are
up for all onboard ports and down for expansion (NIC) cards.

As you insert the connector, you should feel it click into place; if you do not feel it click, remove
it, turn it around and try again.
Steps
1. Use the animation or illustration to complete the cabling between the controllers and to the switches:
2. Go to Step 4: Cable controllers to drive shelves for drive shelf cabling instructions.
The optional data ports, optional NIC cards, mezzanine cards, and management ports on
the controller modules are connected to switches. The cluster interconnect and HA ports
are cabled on to the cluster/HA switch.
You must have contacted your network administrator for information about connecting the system to the
switches.
Be sure to check the direction of the cable pull-tabs when inserting the cables in the ports. Cable pull-tabs are
up for all onboard ports and down for expansion (NIC) cards.

Steps
1. Use the animation or illustration to complete the cabling between the controllers and to the switches:
2. Go to Step 4: Cable controllers to drive shelves for drive shelf cabling instructions.
You must cable each controller to the IOM modules on both SAS drive shelves.
Be sure to check the illustration arrow for the proper cable connector pull-tab orientation. The cable pull-tab for
the DS224-C are down.

As you insert the connector, you should feel it click into place; if you do not feel it click, remove
it, turn it around and try again.
Steps
1. Use the following animation or illustration to cable your controllers to two drive shelves.

2. Go to Step 5: Complete system setup and configuration to complete system setup and configuration.
If you have network discovery enabled on your laptop, you can complete system setup
and configuration using automatic cluster discovery.
Steps
1. Use the following animation to set one or more drive shelf IDs:
2. Plug the power cords into the controller power supplies, and then connect them to power sources on
different circuits.
3. Make sure that your laptop has network discovery enabled.
4. Use the following animation to connect your laptop to the Management switch.

XXXXX is the system serial number for the target node.
6. Use System Manager guided setup to configure your system using the data you collected in the NetApp
ONTAP Configuration Guide.
Option 2: Completing system setup and configuration if network discovery is not enabled
If network discovery is not enabled on your laptop, you must complete the configuration
and setup using this task.
Steps
1. Cable and configure your laptop or console:
a. Set the console port on the laptop or console to 115,200 baud with N-8-1.
See your laptop or console’s online help for how to configure the console port.
b. Connect the console cable to the laptop or console using the console cable that came with your
system, and then connect the laptop to the management switch on the management subnet .
c. Assign a TCP/IP address to the laptop or console, using one that is on the management subnet.
2. Use the following animation to set one or more drive shelf IDs:
3. Plug the power cords into the controller power supplies, and then connect them to power sources on
different circuits.
9
Initial booting may take up to eight minutes.
Not configured a. Open a console session using PuTTY, a terminal server, or the equivalent
for your environment.
b. Configure the system using the data you collected in the NetApp ONTAP Configuration guide.
